The guy at RPG Land breaks down why there's really nothing to worry about with recent Kingdom Hearts HD fuss caused by Gematsu's email. Square Enix's reply is actually par for the course, as far as localization announcements go. Here's a historical look to provide some context.
As the decade ends, let’s look back at many of the biggest moments in the Kingdom Hearts series. From games to merchandise, there was something for every Kingdom Hearts fan to enjoy.
Kingdom Hearts' Organization XIII is full of many different personalities. Here is how we've ranked each of the members from worst to best.
Kingdom Hearts has exploded. While Kingdom Hearts III is only the third game in the trilogy, it is one of many titles that rounds out the series' lore. It is a lot to take in, and people might not have time to go through all of it. Fortunately, Michibiku's guide is here to help! To help better illustrate what is going on and what people should be playing, here is the full timeline going through when every game happens and if someone should watch or play through each one.
Chain of Memories and 358/2 have a lot of important stuff that lead into KH2. Otherwise you'll be Really lost at beginning of 2. You can easily find a videos of all the cutscenes of both games so you dont have to play through them all the way.
Wouldn't actually say Chains is necessary before going into 2 since you know just as much as Sora. While I do like a lot from 358/2, aside from a few things it's mostly world/character building Days came out after 2 anyway and would take a lot of mystery away. Maybe I'm just trying to simulate how I experienced the story but in that case I actually started playing 2 first lol. Cutscenes should be sufficient for sure.
I'd through 0.2 in there as well just cause it's so short and has a decent amount of information. What the hell did Mickey mean?
No doubt it will come and I'll be getting it and every other future Kingdom Hearts game that is released
They never said it wasn't. All that was said was that the announcement was for Japan only.
i'm not surprised. The media was "just" taking words out of context, as always-
True. When they said "Japan-only", they meant that particular announcement. You can't always expect a single announcement for all regions.
